Customer Satisfaction Survey

I've been relying on Dr. Howard for my eye care for 21 years, since attending college in San Diego; even after moving to Orange county 15 years ago. My wife and 7 and 9 year old boys all go with me now! He has always updated his equipment to provide for a state of the art examination and has worked with me to make sure I'm getting what I need. He's been exceptionally patient when fitting me with contacts and over the years has given me countless new types of lenses to try to make sure I have the best vision and comfort possible. I visited the new office for the first time yesterday and it's great and the staff are very accommodating. I've tried a couple of places closer to home, but their technology and treatment did not compare.

Complications from LASIK are few, but they do happen. It’s important to understand the risks, and how to minimize them.
LASIK - Criteria for Success
Successful LASIK surgeons get that way from experience and the ability to screen out poor candidates for the procedure. Here’s the list of what makes you a good candidate.
PRK
An alternative to LASIK, PPK is a no-flpa eye surgery. Learn about the advantages and disadvantages, as well as what to expect.
Surgery for Presbyopia
A number of relatively new procedures are addressing the age-related decrease in ability to focus on near objects, that was once correctable only with bifocals.
Corneal Inlays and Onlays
These small lenses or optical devices are inserted into the cornea to alter its shape and correct vision problems.
Corneal Transplant
Sometimes because of disease or injury, the cornea becomes so damaged that problems cannot be corrected with eyeglasses, contacts, or refractive surgery such as LASIK.
